Is it a gallbladder or a bladder? A complication of endoscopic ultrasound-guided gallbladder drainage
Authors: A. Cominardi, G. Comparato, G. Cattaneo, G. Aragona
Journal: Endoscopy (2023)

Abstract Text A 85-year-old woman presented to our unit with abdominal pain. Laboratory tests and abdominal computed tomography (CT) were suggestive for acute cholecystitis. The patient underwent an endoscopic ultrasound-guided gallbladder drainage since she was unfit for surgery for her comorbidities. After 4 days, the patient conditions worsened and the CT showed that the lumen-apposing metal stent (LAMS) was deployed in the bladder. Finally, the LAMS was surgically removed from the stomach and from the bladder. The patient was discharged 12 days after surgery in good conditions.

Authors: K. Basiliya, A. Papaefthymiou, G. Webster
Journal: Endoscopy (2023)

Aims Electrohydraulic lithotripsy (EHL) is used in cholangioscopy to fragment biliary/pancreatic duct stones. EHL relies on the propagation of a shockwave through a normal saline, but anecdote suggests reduced efficacy in the presence of significant ERCP contrast media. We aimed to test the robustness of this impression.
Intermittent gastric outlet obstruction and mild acute pancreatitis caused by large gastric pedunculated polyp. A video case
Authors: F. Cravero, G. Venezia, B. S. Demarchi
Journal: Endoscopy (2023)

Abstract Text A 75 y.o man, admitted for recurrent post-prandial vomit for two weeks. CT scan showed a 25 mm solid polyp in second duodenum,and pancreatic head enlargement. Blood test increased amylase and lipase consistent with acute pancreatitis. MRCP excluded biliary stones. Gastroscopy showed a pedunculated polyp with long stalk in the antrum and a 25 mm head prolapsed in duodenal bulb, causing an intermittent ball valve obstruction. Polyp resection solved patient symptoms. Gastric polyps can rarely protrude through the pylorus and causing progressive gastric outlet obstruction, even rarer is ampulla of Vater compression [1] [2].

Combination of large sphincterotomy with 20mm endoscopic very large balloon dilation for difficult biliary stones: a tertiary center experience
Authors: S. Tokmak, S. Torun
Journal: Endoscopy (2023)

Aims Combining large (up to 15mm) diameter balloon dilatation (ELBD) with sphincterotomy for the removal of large (>12mm) common bile duct stones provide an increase in stone removal rate, a decrease in the need for lithotripsy, recurrence rate, and several repetitive procedures. However, data on very large diameter (>15mm) balloon dilatation (EVLBD) are scarce. We here report the data of 13 patients in whom 20mm EVLBD was performed for common bile duct stone clearance during ERCP.

Authors: M. A. Noreillie, H. Ayubi, S. Jabak, O. Olabintan, C. Radia, S. Gulati, B. Hayee, S. Thrumurthy, A. Emmanuel, A. Haji
Journal: Endoscopy (2023)

Abstract Text Endoscopic electroporation is a novel technique used in the management of inoperable colorectal and oesophageal cancers. This technique involves the delivery of short electrical pulses to tumour tissues, which transiently increases cell membrane permeability, allowing the passage of calcium ions through the open pores to give a high local cytotoxic effect with minimal adverse systemic effect. In this video we show how this technique is used to treat an inoperable locally advanced obstructing sigmoid adenocarcinoma. Clinical result of this technique has shown excellent safety profile, tumour regression, and marked reduction or cessation of tumour bleeding [1] [2] [3] [4].

Journal: Endoscopy (2023)

Abstract Text Erdheim-Chester disease (ECD) is a rare non-Langerhans histiocytic multisystem disorder. We report ECD diagnosis thanks to a endoscopic ultrasound-guided fine-needle heart biopsy (EUS-FNB). A linear EUS showed a large enlargement of right atrium and aorta. EUS-FNB of the right atrium was carried out with a 22G needle, using the slow-pull technique, without complications. Histology showed infiltration of lipid-laden foamy macrophages CD68 (+) consistent with ECD and the molecular analysys detected BRAFV600E mutation. Treatment with vemurafenib (BRAF inhibitor)was proposed. Endoscopic ultrasound guided heart biopsy allows the diagnosis of Erdheim-Chester disease and a tailored therapy based on the specific mutation.

EUS-guided gallbladder drainage (EUS-GBD) as second option after failed ERCP for malignant distal biliary obstruction (MDBO)
Authors: C. Chavarría, C. Cuadrado-Tiemblo, E. Resina, L. Sancho-Del Val, C. Castaño-Milla
Journal: Endoscopy (2023)

Abstract Text A 64-year-old male was admitted for jaundice. He refused blood transfusions if necessary. CT scan showed pancreatic tumor with dilation of the biliary tree and liver metastasis. Two ERCP attempts failed. Precut biliary cannulation technique, and EUS-guided biliary drainage as hepaticogastrostomy or choledochoduodenostomy were avoided because of increased risk of bleeding. So, we performed a cholecystogastrostomy with a 15x10 lumen-apposing metal stent with an optimal clinical result. EUS-GBD was safe and effective as a second option of biliary drainage after failed ERCP for MDBO.
